Microwave-induced magnetooscillations and absolute negative conductivity in the multisubband two-dimensional electron system on liquid helium
arXiv:1010.0928 · doi:10.1063/1.3552915
Abstract
It is shown that a nonequilibrium filling of an upper surface subband induced by the microwave resonance can be the origin of the absolute negative conductivity and zero-resistance states for the two-dimensional electron system on liquid helium under magnetic field applied normally. Contrary to the similar effect reported for semiconductor systems, an oscillating sign-changing correction to the dc-magnetoconductivity appears due to quasi-elastic iter-subband scattering which does not involve photons. The analysis given explains remarkable magnetooscillations and zero-resistance states recently observed for electrons on liquid helium.
